So, when you imagined this online persona, were you going for Inflammatory, Inflammatory Yet Responsive, 14-year-old Banned From Incel Sub, White Pubescent Teen Posing As WOC, or what?

I love this story and the fact that Chastain didn’t tell it herself or use it to defend herself when she was recently called out for some colourblind nonsense tweet. So many of her ilk only do this shit (and not nearly this much) to later prove their legitimacy, allyship or wokeness when their racism is inevitably…

As tragedies are politicized, blame is inevitable.

Maybe I’m too high but I am trying to figure out how outrage over MSU allowing a serial predator to continue for at least 20 years is politicized.

Well, I mean they all have wives and daughters...fart sound.

Uh, maybe there was a reason.

Even better idea, approve the funding for the wall to get the DREAM act approved now, then when they retake congress over the next four years, pull all the funding for the wall, ICE, and other immigration overreaches by the Republicans.

You aren’t punishing athletes. What you’re doing is telling these athletes: This system is so broken that we cannot risk you being a part of it right now. We know you have dreams (or, at least, your parents do), but in the interest of your safety, we cannot allow you to be a part of this corrupt system. THAT’S…

Yep. The judge who is declining to speak with the media is doing it all for the media attention.

Also if they ever make a TV movie or something about this, Mercedes Ruehl is a stone cold lock to play the judge.

I think this is a good time to remind people that, no, the Democrats are not just as bad. It was Democrats, under a centrist Democrat president, who created the CFPB. It was Republicans who don’t want the government to protect you from predatory bankers. Are some Dems bad on Wall Street? Of course. Are they just as…

I spent the first 18 years of my life knowing nothing but that fucking glee. That is the world I lived in.

I didn’t blame Hillary. I blamed the people who refused to vote for her for the current mess we are in.

I dunno, wasn’t this budget supposed to be a permanent one and not another stop gap? I cannot even remember now.

Keep in mind that the people who are pissed at Schumer for caving have just as many issues with delayed gratification as the 35% of the country that loves Trump.

No, they forced the shutdown over what they thought was a strong position, then started hearing differently from their respective constituencies.

He’s a politician. He’s going to be risk averse. This is at odds with a growing progressive base that is itching for a fight. Any fight. These are people who want the Democrats to lower themselves to the Republicans level, no matter who it hurts, or how ill-advised that fight might be.

He’s absolutely right about every bit of this.

She already made a point of that in her very first announcement that she had cancer:

“Trump is a man who seems destined to be muttering about Hillary Clinton on his deathbed”
